- Compiler
- The compiler has some well designed subsystems in it.
- Unfortunately I kind of threw the top layers over it
- in too much of a hurry.
-
- But at least it works, and it is only a programmers tool.
-
- What I hope is that it will inspire someone to write a nice one.
- I don't really have the time for this, as I feel my time is better
- spent as an OPL 'facilitator' in areas of special interest to
- external developers.

- This example
- The source for this example is Helpxmpl.hlp
- I have chosen to put it in my OPD directory
- as that is a good place for all miscellaneous
- OPL resources.

- Things to do
- Series 3 Classic version
- This requires extensive system knowledge.
-
- XWIM version of compiler
- This would allow direct translation
- from the menu.
-
- Embedding tool for OPL
- This would allow resources to be stored
- in OPO and OPA files.
- Such a tool would need to add a proper
- signature to the resource file.
-
- Adding system items.
- You can use specially selected items from the
- main system help for inclusion in your index.
- The compiler currently does not allow this, but
- it may be a nice facility to add.
